There are six black ash hardwood joists, though they are thin. However, though epoxy is easily bent over time, much of the epoxy here has been stiffened with chopped fiberglass. So there is hope.
The original step now needs to be raised a little. It sits only on the outermost joists. I am considering using wooden boots on those joists.
